Developing Hong Kong into a Walkable City: Proposed Strategy and Conceptual Pedestrian Plans in

Central and Sham Shui Po Pilot Areas PURPOSE

This paper seeks Members’ views on the proposed

walkability strategy and the conceptual pedestrian plans in the two pilot areas, Central and Sham Shui Po, developed under the “Consultancy Study on Enhancing Walkability in Hong Kong – Feasibility Study” (the Study).

BACKGROUND

2. The “Walk in HK” initiative was first announced in the 2017 Policy Address. The Government adopts an integrated and comprehensive approach to enhance the overall walkability of Hong Kong. This initiative targets at encouraging people to walk more and drive less, and to complete the first and last mile of their journeys by walking. Our aim is to foster a pedestrian-friendly environment for people to commute, connect and enjoy, making walking an integral component of Hong Kong’s sustainable development.

3. In December 2017, the Transport Department (TD) commissioned the Study to formulate a set of planning and design standards and guidelines that put priority on pedestrians, and a strategic plan to develop Hong Kong into a world-class walkable city. We have selected Central and Sham Shui Po as two pilot areas (boundary shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2) to test and showcase various walkability improvement measures under the proposed strategy. If the pilot is successful, we will apply the standards and guidelines to other parts of Hong Kong progressively.

4. The Stage 1 public engagement (PE) was carried out in mid-2018. Having consolidated the views and aspirations from the public to enhance walkability during Stage 1 PE, we have formulated the proposed walkability strategy and the conceptual pedestrian plans for the two pilot areas. The Stage 2 PE commenced in June 2019 for a


______________________________________________________________ TFWLHA/01/2019

Page 2

period of 3 months. We will collect views from the public and the relevant stakeholders on the proposed walkability strategy and the conceptual pedestrian plans of the two pilot areas.

5. We consulted the Transport Affairs Committee of the Sham Shui Po District Council and the Traffic & Transport Committee of the Central and Western District Council on 4 and 6 June 2019 respectively. Members of both district councils supported the walkability concept, and requested for quick implementation of the short-term measures. At the same time, they expressed reservation on some new/enhanced measures such as low speed limit zone and part-time pedestrian streets.

6. Details of our proposed walkability strategy and the proposed conceptual pedestrian plans of the two pilot areas are included in the Stage 2 Public Engagement Digest in Annex D and summarized in Annex A for easy reference.

PROPOSED INITIATIVES TO ENHANCE CONNECTIVITY TO HARBOURFRONT IN THE TWO PILOT AREAS Central 7. The Government has been working to create an attractive, diverse and accessible Victoria Harbourfront. The “Urban Design Study for the New Central Harbourfront” completed in 2011 has recommended a comprehensive multi-level pedestrian network (including underground, at-grade and elevated walkways/landscaped deck) to provide convenient linkages to the harbourfront. Another study by TD on “Feasibility Study of Pedestrian Connectivity on Hong Kong Island North between Wan Chai and Sheung Wan” completed in 2019 has recommended a continuous east-west pedestrian walkway between the Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Park in Sheung Wan through Admiralty to Wan Chai. Together with the existing grade-separated pedestrian network in Central and Sheung Wan, it forms a comprehensive and well-integrated network in the Core Business District (CBD) area.

Proposed North-south Pedestrian Connections- 8. Even with the existence of a comprehensive pedestrian


______________________________________________________________ TFWLHA/01/2019

Page 3

network, the Study has recommended to explore further enhancing the pedestrian connectivity along existing key north-south pedestrian linkages (including Pottinger Street, Hillier Street, Tung Street/Morrison Street, Eastern Street and Centre Street) so as to make it more comfortable to walk from the hinterland areas to the harbourfront. Such measures would include widening of footpath, enhancing crossing design, implementation of raised crossing1, etc., where appropriate, along the above key routes. As a result, the green and blue assets will be more accessible and integrated into the lives of the community of Central. Enhancement of Wayfinding Signages- 9. A legible and consistent pedestrian wayfinding system is identified as a key component to enhance walkability. Implementation of an effective wayfinding system would help people navigate around the area and get access to key attractions including the harbourfront in a more direct and convenient way. In 2018, we collaborated with Transport for London and launched the pilot pedestrian wayfinding signage system in Tsim Sha Tsui based on the Legible London standards, and received positive public feedback. Based on the experience gained from the pilot system, we will develop new standards for a pedestrian wayfinding system, and progressively apply to the two pilot areas and other parts of Hong Kong.

Sham Shui Po

10. Sham Shui Po encompasses a relatively old urban core and large-scale residential developments on the new reclamation near the harbourfront and these two areas need to be conveniently connected for integration of the new and old communities. We propose to enhance the north-south links and implement appropriate pedestrian signages, as described in paragraph 9. A more accessible harbourfront would encourage both the old and new Sham Shui Po communities to enjoy the green and blue assets in the district. Nam Cheong Green Corridor- 11. We propose to enhance the existing green and open space on Nam Cheong Street and transform it into a north-south green link.

1 A raised crossing is a type of crossing where the road surface is flush with the adjacent footpaths to provide

continuous flat surface for pedestrians to cross the road.


______________________________________________________________ TFWLHA/01/2019

Page 4

This could serve as a strategic pedestrian spine to link up the old and new areas, key open spaces and the harbourfront. We propose to better integrate Nam Cheong Street Sitting Out Areas with the pedestrian network, improve the landscape treatment, strengthen the connectivity and partially widening the footpath at two sides of Nam Cheong Street, with an aim to create a more comfortable walking environment and facilitate public enjoyment of green and blue assets in the district. Tung Chau Green Corridor- 12. We propose to make better use of the existing green and open space on Tung Chau Street to transform it into an important east-west green link, which would be complementary to the above “Nam Cheong Green Corridor” north-south link. We propose to revitalise the space underneath the West Kowloon Corridor and to widen and enhance the pedestrian ways near the urban renewal projects fronting the corridor and improve the crossing facilities to create a comfortable pedestrian link for the new and old communities. North-south Connectors- 13. Tonkin Street and Yen Chow Street link up the old urban core and new development areas, the nearby MTR station entrances and exits and public open spaces. We propose to beautify and enhance the pedestrian environment of these two connectors, provide resting places and greening and suitably widen the footpath where appropriate. These will create a more comfortable walking environment, more convenient public transport connections and more coherent links of the old core area to the harbourfront.

OTHER PROPOSED INITIATIVES TO ENHANCE WALKABILITY

14. Apart from the more established measures such as footpath widening, junction improvement, and streetscape enhancement, we propose some new and enhanced measures to further improve walkability in the pilot areas. These measures include-

a) Implement low speed limit (30km/h) at appropriate street

sections in Sham Shui Po as trial to improve the pedestrian environment and enhance road safety;


______________________________________________________________ TFWLHA/01/2019

Page 5

b) Implement part-time pedestrian streets for making walking

enjoyable in appropriate locations where the traffic flow and thus impact is low but the “place” function is high;

c) Implement level surface, which is a type of street layout

where the road surface is flush with the adjacent footpaths, at locations with higher place function to create a more pleasing walking environment;

d) Reduce street clutter by removing unnecessary street

furniture and traffic signs (including 24 hours no stopping restriction signs2, “Vehicle waiting will be prosecuted” signs, directional signs and guardrails etc.) to make more space for pedestrians;

e) Implement raised crossings more widely at locations

(including bus routes) along major pedestrian links where pedestrians should be given higher priority, to provide a continuous and flat surface for pedestrians to cross the road;

f) Improve design of vehicular run-in/out such that a

continuous and flat walkway can be provided while keeping a minimum mountable kerb for the vehicles; and

g) Improve the arrangement of staggered crossings to make

crossing more convenient and comfortable. OTHER ON-GOING INITIATIVES TO ENHANCE WALKABILITY

15. Apart from the two pilot areas, we continue to carry out works to enhance the overall walkability and encourage people to walk. These on-going works covering different parts of Hong Kong are in Annex B.

2 Double yellow line road markings will be retained.

Proposed Walkability Strategy Our Vision A1. Our vision is to develop Hong Kong into a world-class walkable city. Our Mission A2. Walking is a form of sustainable urban mobility to achieve transport, social, environmental, economic and health benefits. We will place higher priority on pedestrians in transport planning and will design streets so as to achieve the following-

(i) Making it Connected (ii) Making it Safe (iii) Making it Enjoyable (iv) Making it Smart

“Link” and “Place” Concept A3. The conventional pedestrian planning and design approach has been vehicle-centric, focusing primarily on the vehicular traffic needs with little regard to the functions of pedestrian way. Pedestrian way, as a “link”, is a path for pedestrians to pass through as efficiently and conveniently as possible. Pedestrian way can also serve as a “place”, a destination in its own right for pedestrians to experience the locality. A4. Most pedestrian ways serve both functions to varying degrees, and therefore they have different priorities in the design. We have considered the different functions of pedestrian ways and formulated the conceptual pedestrian plans for the two pilot areas. Pilot Areas A5. We have selected Central and Sham Shui Po as pilot areas for achieving the vision of the proposed walkability strategy. The two pilot areas represent different urban functions in Hong Kong with contrast in their development history, district characteristics,

Annex A


______________________________________________________________ TFWLHA/01/2019

Page 8

demography and streetscape. A6. We have taken into account the district characteristics and our planning intentions are as follows- Central

• Connecting the CBD to the harbourfront and the uphill area

• Improving walking in the east-west and north-south key pedestrian corridors in the CBD

• Supporting exploration of the historic links, character streets, cultural and entertainment precincts, and visitor attractions

Sham Shui Po

• Connecting the old urban core and new development area • Reimagining the street grids • Enhancing connection of green space • Supporting walkability for all

Proposed Conceptual Pedestrian Plans and Main Improvement Areas A7. In consideration of the link and place functions of the pedestrian ways in the pilot areas and taking into account the district characteristics and our planning intentions, we come up with the conceptual pedestrian plans in Figure 1 and Figure 2 for creating a walkable CBD in Central and a walkable urban district in Sham Shui Po. Main Improvement Areas in Central

(i) Central Business Core (ii) Sheung Wan Business Core (iii) Culture, Heritage and Entertainment Precinct (iv) Tai Ping Shan Street Precinct (v) Harbourfront Links

Main Improvement Areas in Sham Shui Po

Other On-going Initiatives to Enhance Walkability

• Take forward the hillside escalator links and elevator system (HEL) and continue to review and improve the HEL’s assessment mechanism

• Install barrier-free access facilities (ramps and elevators) at footbridges and subways

• Study relaxation of existing standards stipulated in the Transport Planning and Design Manual for adding covers to walkways, and providing covers on certain walkways connecting to public transport facilities progressively

• Enhance HKeMobility mobile application, including - extending the walking information and route searching

function to all districts - providing real-time passenger information for public

transport • Intelligent junction - Use technology at junctions to enhance traffic signal

control so as to optimize waiting time for both pedestrian and vehicles

COMPLIANCE WITH HARBOUR PLANNING PRINCIPLES AND GUIDELINES

We consider that the proposed walkability strategy and the conceptual pedestrian plans of the two pilot areas in Central and Sham Shui Po align with the Harbour Planning Principles in the following aspects –

(a) Principle 1 – Preserving Victoria Harbour

The proposed interventions in the two pilot areas will not involve any reclamation works and the objective to preserve the Harbour is fulfilled.

(b) Principle 2 – Stakeholder Engagement

Engagement with stakeholders is conducted through a three-stage public engagement (PE) exercise- The Stage 1 PE was conducted between June and August 2018, during which the public gave positive feedback and expressed extensive support to the Study. The Stage 2 PE commenced in June 2019 and is currently underway. Through consultations with the Sham Shui Po and the Central & Western District Councils (which were conducted on 4 and 6 June 2019 respectively), focus group meetings and community workshops, we are collecting public views on the proposed walkability strategy and the conceptual pedestrian plans of the two pilot areas. The Stage 3 PE will be conducted in 2020 Q2 for recommending the outline pedestrian plans and improvement schemes for the two pilot areas, and firming up the walkability strategy for Hong Kong.

Annex C

Page 12

(c) Principle 3 – Sustainable Development

The Study aims to encourage walking, which is a form of sustainable urban mobility to achieve transport, social, environmental, economic and health benefits, by enhancing the walkability and the connectivity in the city.

(d) Principle 4 – Integrated Planning

We have been sharing our vision and mission with the relevant bureaux and departments to promote walkability in the city, and closely liaising with them to take forward the proposed conceptual pedestrian plans in the two pilot areas, to better coordinate with their ongoing and planned developments adjacent to the harbourfront in Sham Shui Po.

(e) Principles 5, 6, 7 and 8 – Proactive Harbour Enhancement, Vibrant

Harbour, Accessible Harbour and Public Enjoyment

The Study will improve the pedestrian walking environment in order to enhance the connectivity and walkability between the harbourfront and the hinterland in the two pilot areas for public enjoyment. Measures such as improvement of the crossing facilities, provision of wayfinding signage to enhance the connectivity along the harbourfront will be implemented as introduced in the paper.

2017年的施政報告提出「香港好．易行」，運輸署以一個綜合及全面的政策和方向，提升香港的易行度，鼓勵市民「安步當車」，連接「首程」及「尾程」，以減少短途使用汽車。

這不單是一項運輸政策，亦同時是政府應對氣候變化、鼓勵市民實踐健康生活、促進經濟和社區互動，以及構建宜居和長者友善的社區等各方面政策的重要一環。

我們的目標是提升香港的整體易行度，利便市民出行、連繫及享用，讓步行成為香港作為可持續發展城市的重要部分。

我們於2017年12月展開了「提升香港易行度顧問研究」，目的是給予行人更多優先考慮，制定各項規劃及設計，以及將香港發展成為世界級步行城市的策略。我們選擇中環和深水埗作為試點地區，以試行和展示擬議的整體策略。

The ‘Walk in HK’ initiative was announced in the 2017 Policy Address. To support this, the Transport Department (TD) has undertaken an integrated and comprehensive approach with the aim to enhance the overall walkability of Hong Kong. This is to encourage people to walk more, ride less and to walk for the first and last mile short-distance connections, rather than using vehicle transport.

This is not only a transport policy but also an integral part of the Government’s various policies to tackle climate change, encourage a healthy lifestyle, foster local economies, enhance community interaction and build a liveable and age-friendly environment.

Our aim is to foster a pedestrian-friendly environment for people to commute, connect and enjoy, making walking an integral component of Hong Kong’s sustainable development. In December 2017, the TD commissioned a study on ‘Enhancing Walkability in Hong Kong’ to formulate a planning and design principle that puts priority on pedestrians, and a strategy to develop Hong Kong into a world-class walkable city. We have selected Central and Sham Shui Po as pilot areas to test and showcase the proposed walkability strategy.

Introduction

第一階段公眾參與的撮要

第一階段公眾參與活動收集了市民對提升香港整體「易行度」的不同意見和願景。

「香港好．易行」政策得到大部份參與者的支持，並希望研究能令街道設計更加顧及行人不同的需要，提供暢達安全的行人網絡，締造共融環境。

公眾參與活動為研究的行人規劃框架提供相關考慮，包括道路安全、暢達便捷的行人網絡、舒適共融的步行環境等等。

街道的規劃和設計需顧及不同的社區和街道特色，營造多元化的街區，讓市民樂用公共空間，鼓勵市民步行及連繫社區。

Summary of Stage 1 Public Engagement

Views and aspirations on enhancing overall walkability for Hong Kong were solicited in Stage 1 PE.

The majority of the participants were supportive of the ‘Walk in HK’ initiative and suggested that we need to address different mobility needs, to create an inclusive pedestrian environment and to provide a safe and convenient pedestrian network.

The Stage 1 PE has helped identify key components of walkability relevant to the pedestrian planning framework to be formulated under the study, including road safety, connectivity of pedestrian networks, enjoyable and an inclusive walking environment.

Planning and design of streets need to consider the characteristics of the district and neighbourhood, to create diverse and vibrant precincts that people could enjoy, and encourage people to walk and connect with the community.

Introduction

香港具備優良的條件，可成為世界級「易行城市」。集約、高密度及公共運輸導向型的發展模式，加上方便易達的綠色及藍色自然資源，配合合適的規劃和改善，為我們帶來一個非常便捷、高效率、充滿活力及多姿多采的城市。

我們的目標是規劃一個在實體和功能上互聯互通的城市，把握機遇，令我們能與工作地點、商業、公共設施以及大自然便捷聯繫，促進以步行作為低碳及健康的出行模式。

Hong Kong’s unique urban form has many attributes conducive to creating a walkable city. The compact, high-density and transit-oriented development, with green and blue assets in close proximity, through proper planning and improvement, has made Hong Kong a highly convenient, efficient, vibrant and diverse city.

We will plan for a physically and functionally integrated city, connecting our workplace, businesses, public facilities and nature, and promote walking as a form of low-carbon active transport.

Opportunities and Challenges

香港市區的土地及空間有限，城市活動頻繁，行人流量亦非常高。立體面的城市形態包含著多層次的用途，連接通道及行人活動。基於密集的城市發展，作為公共空間的行人網絡會在不同時間容納不同的用途。

雖然，公共交通工具的使用率高，但傳統上我們在道路設計方面優先考慮車輛。

在地勢陡斜的地區行人需要穿越斜巷、樓梯街及過路的障礙。

香港因爲亞熱帶氣候，炎熱、潮濕及多雨，影響市民步行的意欲。

我們需要一個更便捷、舒適及行人友善的步行環境，鼓勵市民行得更多及更遠。

Land and space in the built-up areas in Hong Kong are scarce while urban activities are intensive and pedestrian flows are high. An urban morphology has evolved with multi-layers of uses, connectivity and pedestrian movement. The compact nature of the city gives the pedestrian network a spectrum of uses across different times as a public space.

Despite high patronage of public transport, road design in Hong Kong has conventionally been putting higher priority on vehicle movement.

In the hilly parts of the city, pedestrians have to navigate steep walkways, stepped streets and barriers created by road crossings.

The hot, humid and rainy sub-tropical climate also affects the extent to which people are willing to choose walking against other travel modes.

A more comfortable, enjoyable and pedestrian friendly environment is needed to encourage people to walk more and walk further.

行人道功能 - 「連繫」與「地方」 Concept of pedestrian way as a ‘Link’ and a ‘Place’

連繫 – 街道作為通道A street - a movement conduit

傳統的行人道規劃及設計以服務路面交通爲主。行人道作為一個「連繫」，主要方便行人有效率及方便地通過。

行人道亦可以作爲一個「地方」，本身亦是一個目的地，是城市體驗的一部分。

大部分的行人道都有不同程度的「連繫」及「地方」功能，因此，設計的重點亦應不同。我們考慮了行人道的不同功能，將透過兩個試點地區擬備行人規劃方案，及實地測試不同措施以提升地區「易行度」，從而落實構建香港成為「易行城市」的整體策略。

The conventional pedestrian planning and design approach has been vehicle-centric, serving primarily the traffic needs. Pedestrian way, as a ‘link’, is a path for pedestrians to pass through as efficiently and conveniently as possible.

Pedestrian way can also serve as a ‘place’, a destination in its own right and a part of the urban experience.

Most pedestrian ways serve both functions but to varying degrees, and therefore they have different priorities in the design. We have considered the different functions of pedestrian ways. Through formulating the conceptual pedestrian plans and testing the suitability of different proposals for improving walkability in the two pilot areas, we aim at devising an overall walkability strategy for Hong Kong.

中環構建易行核心商業區 Creating a Walkable Core Business District (CBD)Central

中環一直是香港重要的金融及商貿中心，交通四通八達，由四條鐵路路線和機場快線連接香港各區。中環更是一個集約發展的核心商業區，並擁有豐富的歷史地標、文化、藝術、餐飲及娛樂場地。區內各種商業用途集聚，除了大量的就業人口及居住人口，更吸引不少遊客，人來人往。

中環及灣仔繞道的落成、區內其他交通管理設施的規劃及新發展和重建項目，將為區內的出行模式帶來變化。改善區內易行度及行人環境，可鼓勵市民選擇步行，減少駕駛或乘搭車輛出入中環核心區，提升中環的可達性及吸引力，並加強商業核心區與周邊社區及歷史文化設施的連繋。因此，中環是展示作為易行核心商業區的理想地區。

Central has been an important financial and business hub in Hong Kong. It is a compact and accessible CBD served by four MTR lines and the Airport Express. Central also has an array of historical landmarks, cultural sites and arts venues, an agglomeration of different office, commercial and retail, dining and entertainment uses, and a high concentration of working population, residential population and visitors, giving rise to high volume of pedestrian activities.

The completion of the Central-Wan Chai Bypass, planning of various traffic management measures and new developments and urban redevelopments bring possible changes to the travel pattern in the district. Opportunity is taken to review the walkability and pedestrian environment so as to enhance the overall accessibility and attractiveness of the CBD as well as to strengthen linkage between the commercial core and the surrounding historical and cultural attractions. Central is considered an ideal pilot area to showcase a ‘Walkable CBD’.

中環試點包涵五項主要行人改善的建議，詳情請參閱下一節。 The conceptual pedestrian plan shows the five main improvement areas as identified in Central and further details of each proposal are provided in next section.

過去數年我們在中環尤其在畢打街以東進行了多項行人的改善計劃。隨著中環填海區的新發展、重建和市區更新、上坡地區的歷史、藝術及文化景點增加，及新交通基建的落成，我們認為有需要整體檢視中環試點的行人規劃及改善建議。

我們考慮了中環豐富的地區歷史及多元化的土地用途，並採納了以下的規劃意向：• 將商業中心區連接到海濱及上坡地區 • 改善商業中心區內東西向及南北向的主要行人走廊的步行環境 • 協助行人探索歷史文物路線、特色街道、文化及娛樂特色街區及

遊客景點

Over the years, various pedestrian enhancement schemes, notably in the business core to the east of Pedder Street, have been implemented to improve the pedestrian environment. With new developments on the Central Reclamation, redevelopments and urban renewal of the old urban core, significant increase in visitors to the historical, cultural and art attractions uphill and completion of new transport infrastructure, a comprehensive pedestrian plan and improvement proposals are needed.

We have taken into account the district characteristics and our planning intentions are as follows:• Connecting the CBD to the harbourfront and the uphill area • Improving walking in the east-west and north-south key pedestrian

corridors in the CBD • Supporting exploration of the historic links, character streets, cultural,

and entertainment precincts, and visitor attractions

「泊車步行」構思 Plan for “Park and Walk”

中環Central

我們建議改善德輔道中及皇后大道中的行人環境，增加步行的空間及優化現有的過路設施，連接至港鐵站出入口及主要交通樞紐，加強整體行人網絡，提升商業核心區的易達性及吸引力。

此外，我們計劃優化行人通道連接至大型公眾泊車位設施，為選擇駕駛的市民提供「泊車步行」的選擇，減少車輛進入核心區。

We propose to enhance the connectivity of pedestrian network and the pedestrian environment at Des Voeux Road Central and Queen’s Road Central to better connect the core business areas with railway stations and major public transport nodes, and to improve the pedestrian environment so as to enhance the accessibility and the attractiveness of the CBD. We also propose to enhance the pedestrian links connecting to major public car parks so as to provide the choice for ‘park and walk’ for people who continue to drive, thus reducing vehicles entering the CBD.

在商業區如禧利街、永樂街一带及高陞街一帶，狹窄的行人路，以及繁忙的車流和上落客貨活動，導致經常人車爭路。

我們提議透過優化現有的過路設施及於適當位置擴闊行人路，從而改善行人網絡

的連接和協調路面空間的使用，並在合適的過路處設置行人過路平台，提供安全和無障礙的過路設施。

In business areas, such as the street blocks around Hillier Street, Wing Lok Street and Ko Shing Street, the narrow walkways, heavy vehicular traffic and busy goods loading and unloading activities have led to frequent conflicts between pedestrians and vehicles.

We propose to improve connectivity of the pedestrian network and coordinate use of the walkway space through enhancing existing crossing facilities and suitably widen footpath. We also propose to install raised crossings at appropriate pedestrian crossing points to provide safe and barrier-free crossing facilities.

政府致力締造一個富吸引力、多元和暢達的維港海濱。 2011年完成的「中環新海濱城市設計研究」，建議提供一個完善的多層行人道網絡(包括地下、地面及高架行人通道/園景平台)方便行人往來海濱。

我們亦將配合優化中山紀念公園於海濱旁的入口，並通過擴闊西消防街一段海濱長廊以連接港澳碼頭，讓中環社

區把綠色及藍色自然資源融入生活之中。

另外，我們建議加強多條主要路線的南北連繫，改善行人網絡連接，這些路線包括砵典乍街、禧利街、東街/摩利臣街、東邊街、正街等，措施包括於合適位置擴闊行人路及過路處、美化街道、以及提供行人標示等等。

The Government has been working to create an attractive, diverse and accessible Victoria Harbourfront. The ‘Urban Design Study for the New Central Harbourfront’ completed in 2011 has recommended a comprehensive multi-level pedestrian network (including underground, at-grade and elevated walkways/landscaped deck) to provide convenient linkages to the harbourfront. To complement the enhancement of the waterfront entrance to Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Park, we will widen the pedestrian walkway along the Western Fire Services Street connecting up with the Hong Kong and Macau Ferry Pier. The green and blue assets will be enriched, more accessible and integrated into the lives of the community of Central.

徒步海濱長廊Enhance access to the Harbourfront

中環Central

We will enhance pedestrian connectivity along key north-south pedestrian linkages leading from the uphill areas towards the waterfront via the core business areas (including Pottinger Street, Hillier Street, Tung Street/Morrison Street, Eastern Street and Centre Street).

Measures include widening the walkways and crossings at appropriate locations, enhancing the streetscape and providing pedestrian signages to create an accessible and comfortable pedestrian network.

深水埗Sham Shui Po

深水埗是九龍半島首批發展區之一，土地用途主要是高密度公營及私人住宅發展、零售、政府設施及公共空間。早期發展的街道網絡已包含了充滿活力的市集、主題商店街及特色商舖。區內零售活動發達，已成為電子產品、潮流玩意、布藝等多種商品集中地。

深水埗區內包含較舊的核心發展區及新填海區的大型住宅區，均屬高密度發展。在舊區内，由於人口老齡化，提升區內的易行度為滿足社區對易達、方便及共融出行的需要有莫大幫助。舊有市區核心與新發展區亦需方便地連接起來，締造新舊社區融合。

深水埗發展模式在香港舊區中很有代表性，因此我們選址深水埗以展示作為易行市區的理想地區。

地區特色District Characteristics

構建易行市區Creating a Walkable Urban District

Sham Shui Po is one of the earliest developed districts in Kowloon Peninsula. The main land uses include high-density public and private housing, commercial uses, government facilities and public open spaces. The street grids established in earlier years are home to many vibrant street markets, themed retail streets and specialty stores. It has been developed into a retail hub for electronics, as well as trendy and fabric products.

Sham Shui Po encompasses a relatively old urban core and large-scale residential developments on the new reclamation. There is a high concentration of elderly population. Enhancing walkability will help satisfy the community’s day-to-day need for ease of access, convenience and inclusive connectivity. The old urban core and new development area need to be conveniently connected for integration of the new and old communities.

This pattern of development is representative of those in many existing built-up areas. Sham Shui Po has been selected as a pilot area for showcasing the walkable urban districts.

深水埗區內人口密度非常高，土地用途主要是密集的新舊住宅及零售活動，近年區內亦有多項重建項目進行。因此我們會藉此檢視深水埗試點連接新舊發展區的行人設施和步行環境，以提高區內步行質素。

我們考慮了深水埗作為密集式市區的特色，並採納以下的規劃意向：• 連接舊有市區核心及新發展區• 重新構思街道網絡• 加強構建綠色空間的連繫 • 締造人人易行的環境

我們建議在區内的街道網絡，除了必須維持服務路面交通功能的主要街道外，其他街道可採取「行人優先」為原則，締造暢通、易達、安全、舒適及共融的行人環境，並提升行人在這些街道網絡的城市體驗。

規劃意向Planning Intentions

With the high density of population and commercial activities as well as new developments, redevelopments and urban renewal in the district, a more comprehensive pedestrian plan with improvements will integrate the old and new areas. This will uplift the existing pedestrian environment, and enhance mobility for different sectors of the local community.

Our planning intentions are:• Connecting the old urban core and new development area• Reimagining the street grids• Enhance connection of green space• Supporting walkability for all

Within the street grids of a district, we propose that except the primary streets serving major traffic flow, the other streets can adopt ‘pedestrian priority’ principles to create connected, convenient, safe, comfortable and inclusive pedestrian environment, as well as to enrich the urban experiences within the street grids.

深水埗試點包涵八項主要行人改善的建議 The conceptual pedestrian plan shows the eight main improvement areas as identified in Sham Shui Po and further details of each proposal are provided in next section.

區內繁忙的商店市集零售活動令行人流量非常高，經常人車爭路，區內常見的老齡人口及中小學生亦增加了提升道路安全的需要。雖然部份路段劃作

部份時間行人專用區及已實施悠閒式街道設計，但途人仍需途經汝州街及元

州街車流較多較快的街道，有機會構成道路安全隱患。我們希望通過一系列的措施去改

善行人環境，協調不同道路使用者的需求。

The busy retail activities of the shops and street markets have led to high pedestrian flow and frequent conflicts between the pedestrians and vehicles. The concentration of elderly and school population in the district has increased the need for improving road safety. Although some road sections have already been designated as pedestrian streets, there is still road safety concern for pedestrians passing Yu Chau Street and Un Chau Street, where there is high-volume and fast moving vehicular traffic. We aim to improve the pedestrian environment and coordinate needs of different road space users by a series of measures.

我們建議於市集街區內的路段（不包括主要道路例如大埔道、青山道、長沙灣道，荔枝角道，欽州街及南昌街等）試行每小時30公里的低速限制區，改善行人環境，以及提升行人安全。30公

里/小時低速行駛區的概念起源於 1970年代的荷蘭，並在倫敦和巴黎等其他海外

城市陸續實行，成功地減少個別車輛超速的情況及令行人環境更舒適，降低交通事故時的嚴重性，從而提高道路安全。

此外，我們建議優化市集街區內部份路口(如汝州街/桂林街及汝州街/北河街路口)的設計、將桂林街及北河街(介乎鴨寮街及汝州街之間)的部份時間行人專用區向南擴展至荔枝角道(但不包括基隆街及大南街)、擴展悠閒式街道的範圍等。


We propose to trial the 30 km/h low speed zone at the street market sections (excluding main roads such as Tai Po Road, Castle Peak Road, Cheung Sha Wan Road, Lai Chi Kok Road, Yen Chau Street and Nam Cheong Street) to improve the pedestrian environment and enhance road safety. The concept of 30km/h speed limit zone started in the Netherlands in the 1970s, and has been further applied in many overseas cities such as London and Paris. It has been considered a successful means to provide a more pleasant environment for pedestrians and reduce high spot vehicle speed spikes to reduce severity of accidents, thereby enhancing road safety.

In addition, we propose to enhance the layout design of some road junctions (for example, the junctions of Yu Chau Street/Kweilin Street and Yu Chau Street/Pei Ho Street), extend the scope of part-time pedestrian streets from Kweilin Street and Pei Ho Street (between Ap Liu Street and Yu Chau Street) south to Lai Chi Kok Road (excluding Ki Lung Street and Tai Nan Street), and introduce more traffic calming streets in the area.

建議優化南昌街現時的公共休憩空間，並將其構建為連接南北的綠色走廊，貫通深水埗新舊區、區內的休憩空間及至海濱。

我們建議將南昌街休憩處融合成為行人網絡的一部分，改善及綠化行人路的設

計，加強連繫，並部分擴展現有的行人空間，以提供舒適的步行環境，讓市民能夠享用區內的綠色及藍色資源。

We propose to enhance the existing green and open space on Nam Cheong Street and transform it into a north-south green link. This could serve as a strategic pedestrian spine to link up the old and new areas, key open spaces and the harbourfront.

We propose to better integrate the Nam Cheong Street Sitting Out Areas with the pedestrian network, improve the landscape treatment, strengthening connectivity and partially extend the existing pedestrian space, with in aim to create a more comfortable walking environment and facilitate public enjoyment of the green and blue assets in the district.
